Healing Mindfully

Helping midlife women increase bone strength during perimenopause and menopause

About Lesley Sevillena

I am a single mother of two kids and work as a licensed physical therapist in the state of New York. I received my Master’s Degree in 2004 from The University of the Sciences in Philadelphia. I am a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and a Certified Orthopedic Manual Therapist. My expertise is in orthopedics and I have also been a clinical director since 2007 for an outpatient clinic.

My passion is in helping midlife women build resilient bodies so you can feel your best during perimenopause and menopause.

A diagnosis of osteopenia and osteoporosis isn’t just about increasing bone density, it’s about learning how to prevent fractures with a holistic approach

Work With Me

Healing Mindfully is a 1:1 coaching program that dives deep into clinical techniques to help you alleviate joint pain, improve your posture, strengthen your bones, increase mobility, and restore your balance/stability.

There is so much specialization in our current healthcare model, that in order to address your complaints, you need to see around 3-5 doctors and wait 2-3 months to get an appointment. And that is where I come in! What I do is in a league of its own and completely different than what you would get from your traditional Western Medicine doc.

I’m a licensed Physical Therapist and prioritize health and healing for my patients. I have created a space that shifts the reactive care that is currently offered to more preventative care. I help midlife women understand their bodies and build strength that lasts a lifetime before having to run to medications and unnecessary surgeries.

Healing Mindfully begins with an onboarding process where I ask a lot of questions to get a better understanding of what obstacles are in your way and what habits you need to change in order to reach your goals. Once I design your custom program, it will get delivered to your phone. On the app, I will see what habits you were able to complete and hold you accountable each day. I will be able to track your weight, sleep, steps, heart rate, blood pressure, and diet. You will get a lot of support and guidance in order to help you get through the ups and downs of life as a woman with many hormonal changes.

  • Lesley is the absolute best. She's knowledgeable and smart, but she's also encouraging and friendly. She pushes you when you need to be pushed, but is always aware that life happens, and helps you work through the unexpected. I can't recommend Lesley enough. I would recommend her to anyone looking to improve their health and well-being.

  • A few sentences ain’t easy! Lesley just got me. She was not only supportive, but also told me like it is. She’s the right personality for coaching and puts so much into it while also recognizing who her audience is. I’ve learned so much from her. She’s changed my life and I feel like I actually have control over myself again. I can’t thank you enough, Lesley

    ―Melissa

  • Lesley has helped me chart a course to become that person I’ve had my eyes on, the woman I’ve wanted to evolve into. The pandemic threw me off course, and work from home life created another level of anxiety which developed bad habits. I gave birth to my second child which left my body significantly overweight. Coupled with the lack of sleep, little energy, and no motivation, I was headed nowhere. Lesley understood exactly what I as a Mom was going through and could relate, which is why we hit it off so quickly. Within a week of having Lesley in my corner, I experienced higher energy levels, my pants were fitting better, and I had time to do the things that really mattered to me, like reading, cooking, and spending time with friends. She has kept me on track and is helping me to build better habits. I still have a lot of work to do, but I can’t imagine ever reverting back to the woman I used to be.

    ― Stephanie

  • Thank you Lesley! I’ve made more gains this past month with this program (and especially with YOUR help) than I’ve made in more than 5 years! My weight is down, my energy is up, I’m eating healthier, and I’m feeling confident that I can meet my goals. Thank you!

    ― Kerry

  • Before working with Healing Mindfully, I was not exercising at all outside of walking the dog a few times a week and I felt that I was not making healthy choices in terms of food. In the past, I had done better when I was accountable to someone for my workout and food goals so I tried this. What is great and unique about this program is that it isn't just about diet and exercise, but about improving sleep and family relationships. I have never seen other programs focus on my role as a parent and wife and how that could be improved as well. We have really appreciated Lesley’s help and I do feel like we are more connected as a family.

    ―Amy

  • Working with Lesley on this Healing Mindfully journey has been an extraordinary experience. Unlike the multitude of times I've tried other programs or to figure things out on my own, I'd lose momentum, get discouraged and give up. Or, I'd go so overboard that I would end up in worse shape than before. With intelligent coaching and compassionate support, this program made everything feel tailor made for me and made me want to carry on because the changes were steady and ultimately truly amazing! I will be recommending Healing Mindfully to anyone who'll listen!

  • Before I started with Lesley, I was living a life without much routine or intentionality with regards to fitness and nutrition. In the past, I've tried self-researched diets, exercise programs, etc. To have a personalized program with a thoughtful coach is a huge help!

    -Meg

  • Before I was working with Lesley, I was at one of the lowest and darkest and hardest points of my entire life. In the past I tried therapy and I did like it but it was not as hands on or as helpful especially when it comes to staying on routine. In the couple months I have been on this wellness journey, I have seen not only an improvement in my overall mental and emotional health but also my physical health has improved as well as my gut health, I have learned so much about my body and about my mind and how a routine and sticking to what makes you feel good can improve your life every single day. Thank you for helping me to create a new beautiful life for myself.

    -Alexa

  • I was definitely feeling really down about myself and wanted to get healthier. In the past, I tried shakes and restricted my diet. Working with Lesley, has taught me to eat healthier foods and to read all of the labels . A lot of support and check in.
